If everything in this world is temporary, what is life

Dear Friend,

First of all let me tell you that life is not a materialistic pleasure, rather a divine blessing. It’s the destiny of the wandering soul to permeate into a physical body in order to experience the roller coaster ride that this cosmic cycle of constant change has to offer. Therefore, it’s not ‘whether life is worth living’, rather it’s ‘whether we transform our lives worthy of living’.

Next point to be addressed here is the temporariness that life endorses. Change is the only constant phenomenon in this Nature. The Nature surrounding our existence and influencing it, is continuously revamping. If this impermanence disappears, the whole cycle of procreation to perishment and back will pause and newness will be gone. Therefore, this temporary world owes all its beauty and freshness to this ‘law of constant change’.

Now coming to the question whether life is worth living with all the worldly things passing through the screen of momentariness, the answer is yes. That’s because the soul that embodies a form and makes life apparent, will not be able to experience this beautifully transforming world without the senses life renders. Experiencing the worldly affairs is inevitable in the journey of the souls towards freedom from all cycles of life and death. So embrace this blessing with courage and gusto…

Sublime and inspiring words my friend, you are a philosopher in the true sense of the word and yes life is worth living, though some say that life begins after we die. I enjoyed this very much.
